  • Have you ever asked yourself "How do I sterilize my gear?"
    In this video I share with you all how I go about autoclaving my tattoo gear to effectively sterilize my gear.
    We will dive into the entire process from setting a base, to bagging the grips, adding what is needed, and more!
    I personally like to use an autoclave to sterilize my gear because we are using high temperatures, high pressure and steam to kill any microorganisms that would have potentially ruined someones life.
    It typically takes about 1-3 hours to sterilize my grips. It takes about 1 hour when I have 2-4 grips to sterilize, but when I have more it can go on for 2-3 hours, as it should. Sterilizing is NOT something we want to take lightly and or overlook.
    In a nutshell I wipe down all of my grips and gear with opticide wipes ensuring the solution gets into all of the crevices and touches all of the surfaces. After it dries I rinse with alcohol and distilled water , after that dries I will proceed to bag the grips into pouches. From there I setup the autoclave, add water, and plug the power in. The rest I just pay attention and allow the autoclave to reach desired temperatures. Once it reaches my desired temperatures I begin the timer leaving the grips in the autoclave for 25-30 minutes. Leaving the autoclave for the recommended time is essential, I leave mine for 25-30 minutes.
    I will leave links below for you so you can check out this exact autoclave on your end along with the pouches.

    I learned how to sterilize with an autoclave 40 years ago when I went to embalming school.Glad to see that the tattoo industry is hands on with autoclaving because of all the nasty bacteria and diseases that can be transferred without proper sterilization! Thanks for making the video to show how to sterilize equipment properly!

    Use *an aluminum bread rack to give yourself two layers, bro. You'll be able to do more items at once (they're round and have "legs" that come down in a D shape).

    Doesn't matter what autoclave you get? .... I've seen auto clays for as low as 40 bucks I've seen him as high as a couple grand. What autoclave is actually recommended or the best use for sterilizing the equipment?

    Would you recommend other types of autoclaves? or is this the best type on the market?

    • @DanielYuck
      @DanielYuck  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That’s a great question!
      I would say go for what is going to get the task at hand accomplished correctly within a budget 1 can afford. Autoclaved can be very expensive, as this one I am using is more in the affordable end.
      My goal is to combine heat, steam and pressure for sterilization. This little autoclave I use does the trick and is effective at doing what I need it to do. I would say it’s good for private to small studio use but let’s say if it was a larger studio where there is a larger demand of clients we’d want something that can house more than this so we can get more sterilized per round.
      Is it the best or best type on the market ?
      I wouldn’t say anything is ever the best but more so best for what you need to do on your end. I feel it all comes down to what our needs are.
      As long as the elements such as adequate pressure and heat are present we will get to where we are going. I would make certain the autoclave I get reaches desired temperatures, pressures and all of the specifics mentioned in the video prior to purchase. I hope this can shed some light for you.

    I’m seeing a lot of contradicting statements amongst the tattoo community regarding claving and cold sterilization. I’ve ordered an autoclave to sterilize. But what about properly wrapped pen machines using membrane cartridges? is it necessary to use an autoclave? Do you feel with a product like Cavicide the result is enough to steer away from an autoclave?

      @@mikezaimis I don’t have access to an autoclave so I use disposable grips. Not sure what a dry heat machine is, but you can look into chemical sterilizers like Optim CS 20 if you’re dead set on reusable grips. I’m no expert so you’d have to find out for yourself if they’d be effective enough.
